Working in the emergency department of our local hospital, I see so many young girls ranging from fourteen (14) and older having babies while still being babies themselves. Some are going on baby number two. Although I don’t feel like they are necessarily throwing their lives away, they are definitely making high school and the continuance of a college career a challenge. One could say this is where, between being married young and having babies’ young, the age old saying “barefoot and pregnant” comes into play. I read an article on the internet that said Loretta Lynn once stated in an interview that she had four babies before she ever knew why she was having
Ethical Decisions Regarding Organ Transplants Brinda Loupe American Military University Modern medicine has made many achievements, perhaps one of the most remarkable achievements is the ability to prolong a life by replacing one or more of their major organs. Many people wait years for a transplant, some may not receive one at all, due to the number of organs available is lower that the need or demand for them. Along with the supply issues are many ethical issues arise with regard to procurement and distribution of the organs. Physicians should provide education to all patients during their care in regards to organ donation rather than waiting until the time when a family member is distraught to asked about the donation. Many families will reject the idea of organ donation in an effort to hold on to their loved one.
Before the abuse, Mother would’ve done anything for her family. When the abuse started, mother thought of Dave as nothing. She treated Dave like an “It”. Dave’s relationship with his father was also weird. I don’t understand how father didn’t try to protect his son no matter what could’ve happened.
The outcome of the child’s life and disease process is not a guarantee and the child may not be affected. To end a life of a fetus is regardless of outcome is immoral and ultimately no one can make that choice for them. The Trosack’s are the ones that will care, provide, and get to enjoy that child when it is healthy as well as when and if does get sick. The Trosack’s have been wanting a child for a long time and this may be there only opportunity to have a child. To know that the child will suffer and eventually die is difficult to accept but that is when religion and faith is important.
Following an intensive screening and selection process the donor endures a few weeks of invasive medical procedures. First the donor and the woman who will carry the child must coordinate their menstrual cycles. Typically the donor and the recipient take birth-control pills, followed by shots of a synthetic hormone such as Lupron; the combination suppresses ovulation and puts their cycles in sync. After altering her cycle the donor must enhance her egg supply with fertility drugs in the same way an infertile woman does when trying to conceive. Shots of a fertility hormone are administered for seven to eleven days, to stimulate the production of an abnormally large number of egg-containing follicles.
Should parents be held responsible for failing to get their children vaccinated? How will mandatory measles vaccination curb the spread of the disease? In my decision to become a nurse, one of my greatest fear was getting sick with some incurable or fatal disease my patients had. I decided to become a nurse thinking that by a certain in the future these avoidable disease would be easily eradicate. This have proven to be untrue because although the vaccines are available, they are not mandatory and some parents do not believe in vaccinations for various reasons.
I did not want my son to think that I just gave him away because I did not love him or want him. I know I would never have a peace of mind if I went this route. I looked through adoption profiles of couples who were hoping to adopt. All their stories broke my heart and made me wish I had a baby for each of them. I then realized once more how incredibly lucky I was to be able to have a baby and the chance to love, care, and nurture him.
The child gets chance to live and another family who may not be able to have children get a chance of experiencing the joy of having a baby. Second, the mother could keep her child. Who better to raise a baby than their own flesh and blood with the help of their family members and the father? Christians are those who lean more toward the anti-abortion side because the Bible clearly says not to murder. Those pro-abortion, generally do not consider a “fetus a human being when it is sufficiently developed to be capable of living outside the uterus,” they claim, “ a fetus is a fetus, not a human being” (Sarvis 21).
They feel sexual education would teach their children that they would have wait until marriage to have sex. Many of these parents do not feel comfortable with the idea of their child being subjected to spiritual welfare. (Opposing par. 3) They feel like they do not want their kids think their physical actions are connected to their spiritual actions. They want their children to be taught that their body is completely separate from their spirit.
It was also hard for the girl to feel at ease with her natural parents. After experiencing many family issues, I come to realize that being a father or parent is not the ability to give birth; but good parenting is really the time that one takes to love, care and raising a child. The ability to give birth can make one a dad or mom but it does not make you a parent. I would definitely empathize with the foster family for the grief and suffering this rapture may have caused to their family. I would also empathize with the daughter for being traumatized by this tragedy.
